Thank you for your video! Can you tell me which side to sit on to be on the same side as the coast? I know it is the right side, but when I am booking my ticket on the SNCF site, I can't tell if I should sit in the single seat or double and which direction should I face? I have never ridden a train before, or been to France, and I want to be able to see the coast in front of me (facing forward) without having to look across the train. Thank you!

Hi, thanks for the video. When booking for seats in 1st class, how do you know if its forward seats?
@victoriafrankiyo Жыл бұрын
Good question! I'm not 100% sure. I've read that sometimes the train won't know ahead of time which direction the carriages will be facing because they run the forward route and reverse route, and trains get turned around when serviced. But I'm not sure if this is true. I usually travel with a companion and book the 2 seats that sit across a table from each other. When we board, whichever one of us "feels like" traveling backwards that day takes the backward seat.

Because, if you look a map of France, you will see that, from Paris to Marseille, the train goes through what is called "la vallée du Rhône" (Rhône valley), which is flat and without mountains. That is why you can get from Paris to Lyon in 2 hours, or to Marseille in 3 hours and half, in a straight line. Unfortunately, between Marseille and Nice, it is impossible, because of the geography : Maures mountains, Esterel Mountains, then Alps mountains : that is why from Marseille to Nice, the train can't go fast anymore.

Luggage can either fit on the shelf by your seat or in the communal shelves at either end of your train car. You can also keep it next to you if you're lucky enough to not have anyone occupying the seats next to you. Happy travels!
